In the past few years, the science of Internet trollology has made some strides. Last year, for instance, we learned that by hurling insults and inciting discord in online comment sections, so-called Internet trolls (who are frequently anonymous) have a polarizing effect on audiences, leading to politicization, rather than deeper understanding of scientific topics.That’s bad, but it’s nothing compared with what a new psychology paper has to say about the personalities of trolls themselves. The research, conducted by Erin Buckels of the University of Manitoba and two colleagues, sought to directly investigate whether people who engage in trolling are characterized by personality traits that fall in the so-called Dark Tetrad: Machiavellianism (willingness to manipulate and deceive others), narcissism (egotism and self-obsession), psychopathy (the lack of remorse and empathy), and sadism (pleasure in the suffering of others).It is hard to overplay the results: The study found correlations, sometimes quite significant, between these traits and trolling behavior. What’s more, it also found a relationship between all Dark Tetrad traits (except for narcissism) and the overall time that an individual spent, per day, commenting on the Internet.Read More @ http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/climate_desk/2014/02/internet_troll_personality_study_machiavellianism_narcissism_psychopathy.htmlPlus More @ http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread997967/pg1

  • Supurb , very creative .. well done Traxis, what did you use to make it with? .. R2 was always my favorite droid, I saw the movie when it was first released and decided I wanted to be Luke Skywalker.. I was 11 years old.. some things never change ..  I am still 11 years old it seems .. Lol ..

    I think really what blew my mind was when I saw Blade Runner..  I went to see it in Dublin in the summer of 1982 and I remember every second of that cinema sceening like it was yesterday and I found it to be astonishing.. the whole atmosphere of the film... the part where Pris walks onto the screen blew me away, it was the music that did it for me... and it was this scene in particular ... I fell in love with Pris on the spot .... I was 16 by then.... Lol ..

    I went into that cinema a boy and came out a slightly older boy by about 90 minuites .. Lol .. but I went home that day and proceded to decorate my room like Deckards apartment, using anything I could find that looked futuristic, mainly egg boxs and tons of old wires, transistors, old portable TVs that I used to hang on the wall and fluorescent lights to make it look cool ... Lol ..

    since then, its been the cyberpunk genre all the way for me.. started collecting OMNI magazine but regrettably lost every issue I had .. and I know this might sound really geeky but I have a burning desire to own the entire collection of OMNI magazines one day. purely for the covers.... if I can track em all down.

  • Hey Traxis .... right on my brother .. and yeah, there was a time in my own life when I was terrified to walk into a room without apologising .. I used to pause before entering a room and I would literally not be able to go into the room for minuites while I stayed outside the door trying to find the inner strenght to just walk in... as soon as I did, I would say sorry to those in the room, even if I didnt know them, strangers or even new friends I had made simply because I had no confidence .. I was terribly shy .. it took me a long time to build up my self confidence after having it wrenched out of me when I was a kid by the priests and teachers in the school I went to... I learned to forgive myself and in turn forgive them, my teachers ..

    anyway bro .. just keep doing what your doing, filling yourself with peace and continue to find things to do that make you happy .. stay warm in your heart and you will pass that warmth on just by being yourself .... 

    what other people think of you is not your buisness .. even if its on the plus side ... Lol .. its still not your buisness ..

    I heard a great quote .. the only way the reflection of a person in a mirror can smile is when the one looking in the mirror smiles first .. Lol .. well .. at the same time ..

    my friend, do what makes you happy and keep doing it ... so yes .. live and let live .. that is fair .. and if you can support or help other folk who might need it on the course of your journey, then all the better .. thats the nub of it.

    Have a blessed weekend my friend ..

  • There is an upside trolls of course.

    They provide a mirror for us.

    And it is ultimately our reaction to them that matters. (which is what they rely on)

    Not what they say or do.

    So use them like a resource.

    And take steps on your inside to free yourself of their influence.

    • Very well worded. :)

  • It all has to do with people's motivations... Depending on what their motivations are, their actions will reveal... If you can see things clearly, you see right through to why they do what they do.  

    And at that point, you have a choice to not keep feeding into it, or allowing it to upset or distract you.

  • You don't  properly realize how tedious and pointless trolls are. until you find yourself in a place where everyone supports each other and works towards a common end.

    Moving as a united, cohesive entity.

    Growing together.

    Trolls are stuck in separation and are determined to see everyone stuck there with them.

    It is a fear of being less than control game where they attack truths they believe are beyond them.

    If they keep you from moving forward  they feel like they've achieved something.

    Keeps them from having to look inside themselves and making some hard decisions about their life.

    which is a shame for all concerned.

    as a community, you can't move forward whilst having to deal with dead weight.

    And this matters now more than ever.

    There is a unified consciousness beginning to take shape on Earth.

    It's a troll free zone.

  • Well said Tally.. We are all human aren't we?.. Does one really need wings to be an angel?..:-)

    Or if they do, how would an angel best use them?..

    8114926901?profile=original8115031870?profile=originalPerhaps we should also remember that with each day comes change..

    Unconditional Love and Blessings..:-)

  • Agree with that too Hellen.. Its our own ignorance of our true nature and the beauty of creation that leads us astray..

  • 8115033882?profile=original

  • Agree Hellen.. Thanks for posting..

    Personally I just consider a Troll one that hasn't fully woken to their potential.. We all have unlimited potential.. Its what we are..:-)

    And there are different kinds of love beyond just the sexual alone or narcissistic types of love.. Though it exudes no need for competition or acceptance.. Just more harmonious and balanced..

    Separation is the enemy to unity among all..

    Love them unconditionally..
